Gregory Tolle knows that to fully understand and appreciate the miracle of new life at Easter, one has to first fully understand and experience death. In Experiencing Easter, the reader is taken on a journey through Lent. Beginning on Ash Wednesday and culminating on Easter, this book invites readers to experience:
Clean Hearts
Extravagant Worship
Wilderness
Forgiveness
Fearlessness
Hope
Second Chances
Death and Everlasting Life An extraordinary storyteller, Tolle shares truths that will enhance any pastor’s sermons during the Lenten season – and what pastor has not struggled with finding a fresh, unique way to present these age-old fundamentals of Christianity! Whether used as a preaching aid or simply read for enjoyment, Experiencing Easter is destined to become a classic that will be used for years to come by all who wish to experience this holy season anew every year.
Reading Greg Tolle’s thoughtful Lenten sermons, I find my heart encouraged and strengthened. Experiencing Easter reminds me of the depth and power of God’s grace given to us in Christ. Reading these sermons, I found myself smiling and thinking and thanking God for the treasure of the gospel.

In this creative work, Tolle offers a helpful path through Lenten discovery to Christian assurance as part of a resurrection people. Using both historic and current illustrations, he points the reader from Ash Wednesday’s self-assessment, by way of confession and forgiveness, to a recognition of God’s creative grace and true celebration. This can be a timely and valuable spiritual growth resource.
